Fiziev gave a forecast for Makhachev’s rematch with Oliveira

Rafael Fiziev, a top UFC lightweight, gave a forecast for the upcoming rematch between the organization’s champion in this division Islam Makhachev and the applicant Charles Oliveira.

“I’ll choose Makhachev now because I think Oliveira won’t change anything. He's still an elite wrestler, an elite grappler, and in his last fight he showed himself again. But I think if he also goes after Islam, everything will not work out very well, because if you try to jump on a defending fighter, a close defending fighter, like Islam, nothing good will come of it,” said “Ataman.”

Let us remind you that the second fight between Makhachev and Oliveira will take place on October 21 in Abu Dhabi as part of UFC 294.
